Abstract

This volume contains the presentations made at the Eighth International Conference on Dryland Development. It is hoped that it will serve as a repository of information on the problems and prospects of sustainable management of dry areas and preventing desertification, and will thus be of interest to those involved in research, extension, development and policy formulation for the benefit of the people of the dry areas. It is our belief it would serve as an important contribution to the objectives of the IYDD.
